History
Chechen Islamic State of Iraq and Syria member Diana Ramazova was sent to carry out a suicide bombing against a police station at the central Sultan Ahmet district of Istanbul, near the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque in a popular tourist area. Ramazova, wearing a niqab, spoke to the police English with a thick Russian accent and told them that she dropped her wallet. She managed to detonate one of her explosive devices, killing her, one person, and wounding another, but the other two devices were defused by Turkish police before they could blow up.
